-50-DEGREE CONTAINED BASEPLATE
-9” AND 10” AXLES
-160MM (9”) AND 184MM (10”) HANGER

-9” W/ DOUBLE CONES
-10” W/ BARREL-CONE COMBO
-GRADE 8 STEEL KINGPIN
The Fifty Caliber is stable at high speeds while also having an optimal angle for making strong carves. The hanger is not only reversible, but when flipped there is no rake to throw off the ride. The bushing seats are symmetrical with an optimal setup for any style of bushing. The pivot of the baseplate is self contained keeping it from having any weakness. The Blood Orange Bushings at an 89a durometer make for an ideal responsiveness. Perfection...
Updated inner/outer steps on bushing seat:
-The new Inner-Step provides an increased contact area with the bushing, resulting in dramatically higher rebound and overall responsiveness. The Inner-Step diameter has been adjusted to 25.4 mm to eliminate all slop.
-The new Outer-Step is now a perfect circle with a 31.5mm diameter, creating a perfect no-slop-fit with oversized aftermarket bushing combinations.
Pivot with tighter tolerance and updated chamfer:
-By decreasing our pivot cup seat chamfer, we have increased pivot cup surface area contact with the baseplate. This creates a snugger fit for the pivot pin and prevents side-to-side play as the pivot cup breaks in.
Circular kingpin hole with updated diameter:
-With a diameter of 17.4mm, our kingpin hole has been updated to match the specs of our precision trucks. A circular hole provides a consistent and uniform lean, while also allowing proper clearance to avoid kingpin bite on the hanger.
Increased truck strength:
-With a new in-house heat treatment process at our manufacturing facility, we are able to strengthen our trucks by as much as 40%
Pressed-in grade 8 hex head kingpin:
-We have removed all slop and play by switching to a pressed-in kingpin. This provides maximum control and responsiveness through corners, but can still be hammered out and replaced with different length removable kingpins for extra levels of customization.
Reinforced baseplate:
-We have reinforced our baseplate by thickening the metal towards the kingpin. This provides increased strength and resistance against high speed impact.
Thinner paints for tightened tolerances:
-Powder coats are very thick and can throw off tolerances and affect overall truck performance. We have switched over to a thinner paint system for optimal performance.
